  • We construct and analyze a class of static spherically symmetric spacetimes in general relativity sourced exclusively by classical electrostatic configurations. Using a spherically symmetric Painlevé-Gullstrand-like metric with unit lapse and a radial shift function, we develop piecewise-defined solutions where the interior geometry is flat and the exterior is supported by several sources inspired by electromagnetic distributions. These include point-charge-like fields, Yukawa-screened electric fields, dielectric layers, and Hulthén-type field. The Einstein equations naturally impose a relation between the energy density and radial pressure, while the tangential pressure is derived from the metric. We systematically evaluate the classical energy conditions in each model and study the appearance of singular behavior using Israel junction conditions. This framework offers an analytically tractable setting to explore the gravitational effects of physically simple, well-understood sources without resorting to exotic matter.
